My scariest moment in Alien: Isolation

[Jdabomb]

As soon as you got done holding your breath, and let out a gasp, the alien screamed, and I thought it had heard you, but THANKFULLY, it went after someone else entirely. lol

This gameplay was very realistic and look like something from E3. You’re just using your flashlight to see what’s behind the locked door, and all of a sudden the Alien’s there. The Alien sees that you used a flashlight and it’s going to your destination and you’re hiding. Then it comes in the room and checks the hiding spots. So realistic and accurate.

I love how most of "my scariest moment" are not even jumpscares but just the presence of alien

[GalacticHero]

I can imagine how horrifying it must have been to turn on that flashlight and suddenly be surprised by the Alien!

What I love is that the Alien sees you through the window and reacts accordingly by running down the corridor and round to where you would be just like in real life. There's so many instances in games years ago where windows seem to be tricky for the A.I to navigate. They either don't see you at all as its basically just a wall with a bit of coding that allows the player to look through it, or the enemy tries to attack you through it as if it wasn't there at all because it itself has no awareness of the barrier. In this instance it saw you, knew exactly where you were in relation to the layout of the corridors and attempted to intercept you on route. This game was a truly underrated gem.

Yo a MILLISECOND slower in that cabinet, and you were dead meat.

This is probably one of the coolest clips I've seen out of any gameplay clips of this game. It literally played out like a movie scene. This is why the game is so damn good 👌

[Fanturama]

Legends say that player is still living in that cabinet to this very day.

This might have been one of the most cinematic and terrifying moments I’ve seen in a video game.

The pause menu after the alien went into the vent was so real, there's always times while playing that you gotta do that to catch your breath

[SirMarshalHaig]

Ah one of the classic "I´ll just wait till it dies of old age" moments

[Jehtblu]

For me, it's how jerkly she moved to the cabinet. You can imagine her legs being numb as her body tried to freeze in panic

[NovaG]

The moment you let go of your breathe and the alien screamed but it was because of another person there...oof that was scary

[thecircleoft.e.d]

My God! I love how it blended perfectly into that dark as hell room; the light shining on it is right out of a horror movie scene.

[Starbat]

I love it when spontaneous moments like this feel like they're straight out of a horror film. ^^

I love the Alien Franchise and this game but I’ve never been able to progress past Mission 7. I’ve no problem w/ Outlast, Silent Hill, RE, Dead Space, Amnesia, etc. I think it’s because the idea of being trapped on a failing spaceship and hunted by an intelligent alien is about the scariest damn thing I can imagine. It’s not that any one moment is too much for me to handle but overall the game creates too much dread in my psyche.

I have finished this game in all Dificulties and it still makes me uncomfortable watching scary and anxious moments from it. A really well made horror game.

[raccoonenjoyer]

bro I literally bit my hand while you where running away, I could never play this game. I nearly got a heart attack.

[iCANT_BELIEVE_YOU_SAID_THAT]

That was intense. 😅
To those wondering, that scream was the alien bitting an unsuspecting NPC.
